JHM Baptisms

At Cornerstone we believe baptism is an important step in the faith journey of all believers. Although baptism does not provide salvation in anyway, it does communicate clearly to those who watch that you are a Christ follower and you are choosing to live your life serving and following Him! The act of baptism can be defined as an outward expression of an inward decision. 

We love having the opportunity to baptize Junior High students at Cornerstone. We do not have a required age for baptism. The important step of being baptized is one we feel is best left for the student to decide with the help of his/her parent or other trusted adult. 

Once you feel your child is ready, we offer a Baptism Class just for JHM students where we will discover what baptism is all about, why it is important and what is means for a follower of Christ.  You can register for our next class on July 7th HERE.

We will be having Student Ministries baptisms on Saturday, July 13th & Sunday, July 14th immediately following the weekend services.

May/June Teaching Series

Imagine summarizing your life in just four photos—four images that would explain your strongest beliefs, your truest character, your deepest desires. What four pictures would you choose?

Snapshots, is a teaching series where we will be taking a look at four pictures of Jesus to help us gain a clearer understanding of who he is and what he is all about.  It's important for students to understand as much about Jesus as they can, especially if they would call themselves Christians; followers of Jesus Christ. We won’t be able to examine every truth and every detail about Jesus but we will give students a solid foundation for understanding what being a Christian is all about.  Join us in JHM over the next four weeks as we encounter the real Jesus of the Bible through Snapshots.

Mother's Day Weekend

On May 11th & 12th we will be having our annual Mother's Day Weekend event where students are encouraged to invite their mom (or the mother figure in their life) to attend the JHM service with them (Saturday at 6:00pm or Sunday at 9:30am in the Event Center).  Student Ministries Pastor, Steve Ingold, along with his mom, Pam Ingold will be speaking to our JHM students and their moms.  Please join us for this fun weekend as we celebrate and show our love and appreciation for all of the JHM moms!

The first weekend in May, we will be having a special event in JHM called 8th Grade Takeover.  That weekend, our current 8th grade students will have the opportunity to "takeover" the entire JHM weekend service.  From check-in, to production, to the game and announcements, the 8th graders will have the opportunity to run the service and leave their mark on JHM before they transition in to High School Ministry.  All current 8th grade students are welcome and encouraged to participate in this special event.

April 2013 Teaching Series: Crazy in Love

The Junior High years can definitely be defined as a crazy time in life.  School, sports, teachers, recitals, detention, friends, gossip, dances, bullies, family, grades and sometimes the craziest one of them all...LOVE.  During our Crazy in Love series, we will take a look at relationships with the opposite sex in the context of the crazy Junior High world.  We will tackle it head on in discussing everything from friendships, to dating, to talking through what it means to be a godly girl and a godly guy in today's world.  Over the next three weeks in JHM, we hope to discover what God's word says about relationships with the opposite sex and how we can pursue His wisdom and purpose in this area of our lives.  You won't want to miss a single weekend of this series.  It's going to be...CRAZY!

Join us Saturdays at 6:00pm or Sundays at 9:30am in the Event Center
